That also means a major emphasis on bangs, wispy face-framing strands and fringe. Instead of relying on harsh lines around the face, 'we're moving closer to soft girl hair that opens up our faces to highlight our features,' according to Gutterman.

'Haircuts seem to be moving toward more layers and movement we're moving past super-sleek, refined looks and going for more body and texture,' agrees hairstylist Kat Thompson, whose clients include Lana Condor and Drew Barrymore. 'This season is our soft girl season,' declares Los Angeles-based hairstylist Sophie Gutternam. But so far in 2023, trending hairstyles are decidedly less harsh. Haircut trends come and go, and each passing season brings about some dramatic new style (anyone remember last year's wolf cut or 'skullet'?) that requires a fairly extreme commitment - at least until it grows out.
